Friends of Soqotra

Friends of Soqotra is a registered charity established to promote the sustainable use and conservation of the natural environment of the Soqotra Archipelago off the coast of Yemen. It also supports sustainable improvement in the standard of living of the people of the Soqotra Archipelago.

In 2015, a cyclone caused devastating effects to the local fish communities. Friends of Soqotra raised funds to help repair damaged boats and host repair workshops to ensure livelihood recovery on the barren island.
